Rack ATC

Hello

I have a question. Which *.ngc files and variable entries do I need if I want to use a Rack ATC with LinuxCNC 2.9.7 and a Mesa 7i76e?

Regards,

Same as: linuxcnc.langdonstaab.ca/42-deutsch/57850-rack-atc

Could you provide us with some more info regarding the machine and what you hope to acheive?

Is this for probe basic? If so the docs here have the information on how the rack atc should be setup in configs:

kcjengr.github.io/probe_basic/

For probe basic non of that is required, the existing rack atc is fully setup for configuring the atc in the gui once the correct ini settings and var file parameter numbers have been added. It uses random tool change and tracks pockets the same as random carousel. Looks for the first open pocket for storing the tool and finds the tool by its tool number and the parameter number its stored in. We made it super easy to setup with only a few user entries in the ui itself to determine where the rack is on the machine and the direction of ascending pocket order . Then the first pocket coordinate and the pocket spacing is entered and the drop off and pickup heights and clearance distance and its ready to rock and roll!
